Question: There are also piyyutim in the middle of birchat kriyat
shema. Even in the chassidic shuls that I
davened in they skipped these. Does anyone know of any community that
still says these?
>>

Yep - in our main minyan (nusach Ashkenaz).

>>Related there is a one line piyut right after Borchu that is said. Why
is that different?

And what about the sometimes lengthy singing and ya-ba-bay-ing during Keil
Adon? Why isn't that considered a hefsek?

And AFAIK even Chassidim say yotzros after borchu on Yomim Noroim.
Why isn't it a hefsek then?

>>Even in shemonei esrei there is a consensus which piyyutim are
skipped. In fact Artscroll puts them in an appendix.
Anyone have any idea how this came about?

This is probably so only in shuls without a minhag and mesorah.
And it was probably for the reason that very few were saying the long
pieces.
